This recipe, adapted from Entenmann's Big Book of Baking, attempts to replicate those blue and white boxed cookies at home, and does so if you keep a watchful eye on your cookies and pull them a bit early.

Directions

1.

Preheat oven to 375°F.

2.

Line several baking sheets with parchment paper.

3.

Add the flour, baking soda and salt to a small mixing bowl and mix together. Set aside.

4.

In another bowl, beat the butter, brown sugar, white sugar, and vanilla extract until light and fluffy. Add the eggs one at a time, beating thoroughly after each addition. Stir in the flour mixture until combined. Stir in the chocolate chips and nuts (optional). Mix the dough well.

5.

Drop the cookie dough by rounded tablespoons on prepared baking sheets about 3-inches apart. Bake for about 10 minutes, or until lightly browned around the edges.

6.

Let sit on the baking sheets for 2 minutes, and then remove to wire cooling racks to cool completely.
